    Maintenance and repairing are easy as fuck, parts are cheap and easy to find

    This is a key part here. Often the cars that meet these are not as sexy and get looked over.

        Blower motors are rarely easy in most cars. It wasn’t great in my 71 BMW either. But I recently had the pleasure of replacing a battery in a 2017 BMW X1 and that simple task took me 6 hours. Maintenance on new cars is ridiculous. I love this guy’s simple approach to happiness through anti consumerism. It’s definitely a goal for me.
